Leap Day 2024

I realized too late that there was a typo in the last panel, but fixing mistakes in MS Paint is a headache, so I’ll just do this: “*finished, not finish.”

Update 1/21/23

Geo will premiere January 28th. I apologize for the delay. I know it was supposed to premiere January 13th, but I am going to get back to drawing when I can.

For the sake of my mental and emotional health, however, I am slowing my pace. Not just with SLS, but in a lot of areas.

I need to take time to get my schoolwork done properly; to clean up my apartment; and make time to take care of mself- better than I usually have in the past.

I love creating comics. I love writing stories. But right now, I need to prioritize all the aspects of my life.

This website will still be active. I’m not leaving it, just slowing down. I even purchased the domain from WordPress. Six Lakes Studios is not going away.

Projects that will continue in 2023/be revived in 2023:

  • Six Lakes Comics (TVOV, P&L, Matt, GCT, PP, Geo)
  • The Waterfall
  • Voldensfjordian Murders
  • Short Stories by Matt Slater

Projects that I plan to work on in the future (2023-2026):

  • Blue City Mysteries
  • Tales of Human Nature
  • The Runaways (Full Graphic Novel)
  • The Aviary of Henry Weston (Full Book)
  • Pink Lemonade
  • Max Fields
  • Saddles and Smartphones
  • Six Lakes Comics (Alaska You Later)
  • The Curious Store (audio/cartoon version)

Projects in “development hell:”

(To be honest, I’m not sure about the following projects)

  • Blurred Lines
  • Mason and Eric
  • The Nightman of Bellingham Bay
  • Ghost in the Machine

And finally, one last note: I have decided to delete my Twitter accounts. I rarely use them, and there’s only so much you can do on there. The Six Lakes Studios accounts on WordPress, Wattpad, WebToon, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube will stay.

Thank you for reading, and hopefully, you’ll hear more from me this year.

Two Years, Six Lakes!

And YES! It is now the two-year anniversary of Six Lakes Studios!

Thank you for two years of supporting me in sharing stories with Queer, Neurodivergent, and Pacific Northwestern themes. Since November 17th/18th*, 2020, I have brought not only stories, but comics as well, and there is so much more to come.

I know I’ve been slow on updates lately. I apologize for this, and I will try to catch up over Winter Break. This quarter has been busier than expected, and I also had some personal issues. I will post a video on YouTube when I can, but thanks so much for coming along with me as my website grows.
